Deep Neural Object Analysis by Interactive Auditory Exploration with a Humanoid Robot

Manfred Eppe, Matthias Kerzel, Erik Strahl, Stefan Wermter

IROS 2018poster

We present a novel approach for interactive auditory object analysis with a humanoid robot. The robot elicits sensory information by physically shaking visually indistinguishable plastic capsules. It gathers the resulting audio signals from microphones that are embedded into the robotic ears. A neur…

Erik Strahl, Matthias Kerzel, Manfred Eppe, Sascha Griffiths, Stefan Wermter

IROS 2018poster

We present an illustrative example of an interactive auditory perception approach performed by a humanoid robot called NICO, the Neuro Inspired COmpanion [1]. The video demonstrates a material classification task in the style of a classic TV game show. NICO and another candidate are supposed to dete…
